McDermott on the Bryan Suits Show

Bahgdad Jim McDermott is on the Bryan Suits show on KVI radio attempting to explain how the resolution to authorize force in Iraq is not a resolution to go to war.

Keep tap dancing Jimmy.

So many folks have painted themselves into a corner on the Iraq strike. They're going to have to walk on that paint if they want to survive, leaving little U.N. Blue tracks all over the place.

Wow, surprising. Tell us more. I assume that segment has finished.

Here is the rebroadcast of the interview. Note - Bryan said afterwards that a couple long pauses were due to problems with the playback, but except for one really long one, I don't know which pauses are real & which are not.

Also don't forget my recording of John Carlson's show where he played several cuts from McDermott's speech to the Roosevelt High School students.

I heard some of this last night (the stuff about where he was during the Vietnam war was especially fun to listen to) - bookmarking your post. Thanks!

Be sure to download it so you can archive it. I can't guarantee I can keep it on my site for long.

[secretagent]

Done!

Thanks, I just listened to this McDermott and now I feel sick to my stomach.

This is absolutely disgusting.

[StevenB]

I just listened to it for the 3rd time.

Did anyone notice that when McDermott is talking about the U S of A, he uses the word "they" not "we"?

At the very end when Suits says he is sensitive to how someone states their military service. McDermott says he he never intended to miscommunicate that he served in Vietnam. The next sentance is "I was in the war, I saw plenty of casualties, I went through a lot of pain with people, but I was not there". Saying you "were in the war", is implying you were there. He just does not get it.

My favorite part is when McDermott talks about Suits not feeling any emotion and Suits responds with "When you sent me to Bosnia and I was standing at the edge of a mass grave, I did not feel there was much peace to keep." Classic.

Anyone know how to download the mp3 file?

I have saved it and listened to it several times. It seriously frightens me that an outright enemy of the United States can hold such a position in our government. This simply goes beyond anything protected by the first amendment.

Im also starting to be concerned that this traitor could get his hands on sensitive government information and release it to the enemy thus endangering American lives.

[StevenB]

Thanks!

[StevenB]

Jim McDermott get his hands on sensitive information and then illegally release it??? NO!

On second thought, I think I remember him doing that before...

[expatguy]

exactly my point...
